I saw a tip on one of these threads apart hitting the parking break button after turning on the vehicle. The red park light will go off and it has drastically reduced the amount of squeal I’ve had in reverse.
Brakes Squeal

That doesn't make sense. The squeal is from the front brakes and the parking brake is only on the rear axle.
I’ve got no clue. Give it a try. Just stating my observation. Seems to have worked for him as well. It didn’t go away. But it’s definitely shortened the sequels.
I think some Hawk tooey might help

I took my vehicle in today. I went out with the foreman, and the brakes squealed after a short effort to replicate the noise.
They're going to research the problem and open a case with Toyota.

not sure whats up, but my brakes haven't squealed in a while now. I have 3500 miles on it. I did tow my 4K lb trailer recently and maybe I worked the brakes in pretty hard which resolved it. I dont know.... weird
It will return. Mine went away for about 1-2k miles at 4k odometer. Came back around 6k. Still happening at 10k
We will see. Still no squealing. Even when cold. I really think pulling my trailer was a factor. Plus I talked to my pads and asked them to quiet down.

Dealership took the vehicle for another drive and couldn't replicate the noise. They did on a test drive with me, but they couldn't make it squeal again, so they opened a ticket with Toyota to document the noise.
There's no service bulletin at the moment, so they don't have a solution.

still squeak free .... miracle
I have a very long driveway. If I open the garage door and put it in reverse all the way up the driveway and into the street without applying the brakes, I have no squeaking brakes. Voila....problem solved.
Had the same issue on my Tundra. There was a service bulletin to change out front rotors and brake pads and mounting hardware. After that no more squeal. It was just coming from the front end when backing up. This was a known issue with 2022-2024 Tundra's.
Same
My neighbor gave me all kinds of grief for that "old clunker car" I drive after I woke him up at 5am two days in a row backing out of my driveway. I have started backing into the driveway to avoid the squeal in the morning.
Tell your neighbor you are trying to work just a little bit harder so you can afford a new Range Rover and not be stuck with an old embarrassing Toyota.
